Synopsis

 Spoiler Section (Highlight to Read)
The Wilcoxes are concerned with their son Eugene. He has been attending some scandalous parties in East Town, and they fear that the hostess, Ariadne Varga, is a gold digger. Ariadne and Zoltan, her lover, really are crooks posing as hungarian nobility, and they have an elaborate plan to fleece a few of Arkham's more well-to-do, but things start getting out of hand when Ariadne makes a pact with Atlach-Nacha. Now she's quickly losing control of herself, young men are getting killed and Eugene may be next.
